Gov. Christie Says N.J. Has Little Room To Expand Medicaid

Gov. Chris Christie said this morning he is leaning against accepting federal funds to expand Medicaid in New Jersey, despite the fact that the new federal health care law would pay for mostof the expansion.

“Medicaid is pretty well expanded in our state already because of the legacy of previous Democratic governors. So I don’t know if there’s a lot more to do in New Jersey in that regard,” Christie said on Fox & Friends. Read more in Star Ledger.

  1. I want everything for free. I don’t want to work anymore. I want everyone else to pay for it. How dare you, Christie, not give me more of everyone else’s money. Who do you think you are? It’s not your money anyway, it’s that mystical “someone else’s” money.

    I deserve free healthcare, free dental, a free car lease, a free home, free telephone, free electric, free food, six free nights out per month in the restaurant, five free hotel stays per month, free childcare, free clothing, free shoes, free computers (two per home), free tatoos (one per year is all I ask), free movies (3 per week), free drugs (as much as I need – I won’t be working or doing anything else constructive).

    Now of course, if you don’t give me all these things for free, that means you don’t care about poor people like me. You are just a mean selfish Republican brat who only cares about the rich and refuses to give me everything for free.

    So who will pay for it, you ask? I don’t know. You’re the governmnet, figure it out. Take it from the rich. Take it from those stupid people who actually work. They’re so stupid that they haven’t realized yet that they can sleep all day and still get so many goodies for free.

    So what will I do all day, you ask? That’s none of your business. If you make me work, you’re just being mean to poor people like me.

    So the country will go down the tubes, you ask? To that I say, it’s all Bush’s fault anyway, so who cares???

  2. @ Yid

    my thoughts exactly, people think everything is for free, someone else is paying for it. These people are insane forcing me to pay for their stuff when they wont go to work themselves

  3. Hey Yid:
    In answer to you question “So who will pay for it, you ask?” Obama, will just borrow more money from China what else!
    They have all our jobs, so unless you plan to move to China you don’t have to worry about going to work, so enjoy your freebees. 🙂

  4. Yid, one more thing. If you don’t give me all these things I’ll just have to rob and steal and you’ll only have yourselves to blame. You should have realized I needed more.

  5. Christie is wise…once we accept federal funds for medicare, we’ll be on socialized medicine like canada and UK,,gov will dictate if and when u get medical care. Its time to send obama and obamacare’tax back to kenya where he originated from..kenya needs obamaKenyaCare
